Sports injuries clinic

In addition to regular physiotherapy services, Circle Health also offer specialist sports injury services. Whether you are a professional sports person or a sports enthusiast of any age, with an acute or chronic injury, we understand your goal is to return to fitness as soon as possible.

At your first appointment, you will be assessed by a sports medicine doctor as well as a physiotherapist if appropriate. You will also have access to a consultant orthopaedic surgeon if necessary.

At Circle Health, we use our expertise not only to offer the best treatment available for your injury, but also to look at the underlying causes of injury and how to prevent future problems. We can offer you advice on prevention of sports injuries, warm up and muscle training for your particular sport, muscle imbalance and overuse, and a biomechanical assessment.
